Chapter 5 Review and Expand
Summary
You can put basic cooking skills to use when
preparing simple recipes. Snacks, sandwiches,
pizza, and beverages are good foods for beginning
cooks to make. Keeping common ingredients on
hand and gathering needed supplies before cook-
ing are tips that can simplify any recipe.
Whether snacks are eaten between or in place
of meals, making healthy choices is important.
Using fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat
dairy foods can help limit your intake of sugar, fat,
and salt from snacks. Keeping portions small will
help you avoid overeating.
Sandwiches and wraps are made with some
type of bread and a filling. Pizza is assembled
from crust, sauce, and toppings. By changing the
specific components, you can create a number of
healthy variations on these foods.
Popular beverages include a wide variety of
cold drinks, coffee, tea, and chocolate and cocoa
beverages. Balance these choices with pure water
to control calories. Following a few preparation tips
will result in pleasing beverages.
